How To: Disable Windows' "Use the Web Service" Prompt on Unknown Files
Whenever Windows XP or Vista run across a file type the system doesn't
recognize (regardless of whether you do or not), the user is prompted
with either selecting a program to open it or to "Use the Web service
to find the correct program"—which has yet to work even once, at least
for me. The How-To Geek shows how to disable this prompt and head
straight to the program selector, using a quick registry hack.
